Advancing Boating Safety
At Alber Consulting, every investigation is an opportunity to do more than determine what happened—it is an opportunity to help prevent future incidents.
Our commitment extends beyond forensic investigations and expert witness services. We work with national organizations, investigators, educators, and marine professionals to improve boating safety through training, research, and the development of investigative standards. From managing NASBLA's GPS Forensics Training Program to participating in U.S. Coast Guard-sponsored collision research and contributing to national boating standards, our goal is to advance the profession while making our waterways safer for everyone.
